I have installed the SuSE SLES70beta Linux for S/390. It appears to be working correctly. I had to use an ESCON CTC connection and route through another LPAR for network connectivity temporarily. I will like to get off the ESCON CTC and use one of my existing 9672 network connections. I could not find and OSA2 FDDI support for Linux but did find a claw interface from UTS. I downloaded it and ftped UTSG-claw-2.4-patch to my Linux. The readme tells me to run the patch command, which fails miserably. The patch command is there, however it cannot find what it is suppose to be patching. I am sure that I am missing the obvious.
I am an old MVS dude without the proper background in Linux. Does anyone have it in their heart to assist the old and feeble. Thanks. Peter
